Overview

If you’ve installed Cachet using Git, the upgrade process should be straightforward, usually taking just a few minutes.

​
Maintenance mode

It’s good practise to put your status page into maintenance mode. This changes your status page to show a “Maintenance Mode” message until the upgrade has completed.

Run the snippet from your Cachet’s root directory (where an artisan file exists):

php artisan down

​
Fetch latest code

Upgrading with Git is as easy as:

git fetch origin
git tag -l
git checkout LATEST_TAG

​
Upgrading dependencies

Next, we need to upgrade our dependencies. These usually contain bug fixes, performance enhancements and new features.

Run the snippet from your Cachet’s root directory (where an artisan file exists):

composer install --no-dev -o

​
Update Cachet

We now need to instruct Cachet to run any pending updates:

php artisan app:update

​
Turn off maintenance mode

Finally, we can turn off maintenance mode:

php artisan up
